Baltimore Ravens

7:18 AM PT -- Baltimore's MLB team just sent out its thoughts and prayers to those affected by the collapse ... vowing in a statement to "get through this" as a "tight-knit and resilient city."

The Baltimore Ravens sent out prayers to the victims of the tragic Francis Scott Key Bridge collapse Tuesday morning ... writing in a statement their "hearts go out to those who have been affected."

The bridge crumpled into the Patapsco River at around 1:30 AM ... after a large ship hit one of its support columns.

Several vehicles were on the bridge when it crashed into the near-freezing water below ... and city officials say divers are now on the scene searching for victims.

The Ravens -- who play roughly 15 miles away from the bridge at M&T Bank Stadium -- added in their statement they're confident the city will bond together in the wake of the tragedy.

Former Ravens quarterback Robert Griffin III also sent prayers to those involved ... as did LSU women's basketball star Angel Reese, who was born and raised in the Baltimore area.

Kim Kardashian y Odell Beckham Jr. se veían como toda una pareja este fin de semana, así lo muestra este video a continuación.

Échale un vistazo a estas imágenes obtenidas por TMZ, que muestran a Kim y Odell en la fiesta de Jay-Z y Beyonce después de los Oscar el domingo por la noche en el Chateau Marmot en Los Ángeles, y se les puede ver en una zona similar al vestíbulo del lugar muy cariñosos.

Como se puede ver, Kim estaba charlando con Odell de una manera muy coqueta, yendo y viniendo con él y aparentemente comparando sus trajes. En un momento, ella pone sus manos sobre Odell, agarrando su cara casi como si le fuera a dar un beso.

En realidad, nunca se besaron, pero es lo más cerca que los hemos visto interactuar el uno con el otro en público desde que se rumoreaba que están saliendo desde hace meses.

No parece que ellos supieran que los estaban filmando tampoco, pero en este punto, es bastante obvio que están juntos como pareja. Incluso aparecieron juntos en todas las fiestas posteriores a los Oscars, primero en la fiesta de Vanity Fair y más tarde en lo de Jay y Bey.

Recordemos que también fueron vistos juntos en Las Vegas el mes pasado durante el Super Bowl, donde parecían tratar de pasar desapercibidos,  distanciándose un poco.

Se sintió la misma vibra aquí cuando estuvieron frente a las cámaras en la fiesta, pero ya no están haciendo un muy buen trabajo en despistar a la gente. Ahora, con este nuevo video, parece que ya no les importa ocultar nada.

Los rumores de que Kim y Odell son pareja han circulado durante meses, y todos los informes han sugerido que no es real. Sin embargo, parecen muy interesados el uno por el otro, y el hecho de que siguen saliendo todo este tiempo después indica que esto podría ser serio.

Kim aún no ha declarado públicamente a nadie como su pareja oficial desde que se separó del comediante Pete Davidson en agosto de 2022. Por supuesto, anteriormente estuvo casada con Kanye West, con quien comparte a sus hijos North, Saint, Chicago y Psalm, pero eso se acabó.

En cuanto a Odell, se separó de su novia de mucho tiempo Lauren Wood a principios de 2023, y ha estado soltero desde entonces.

Kim Kardashian and Odell Beckham Jr. are looking more like a couple by the day -- and they seemed to soft-launch their relationship this weekend ... that's what this video suggests.

Check out this footage, obtained by TMZ, that shows Kim and OBJ at Jay-Z and Beyonce's Oscars after-party Sunday night at the Chateau Marmot in L.A. -- and you can see them mingling in a lobby-like area of the venue ... getting touchy-feely with each other.

As you can see ... Kim was chit-chatting with Odell in a pretty flirty manner -- going back and forth with him and seemingly comparing their outfits. At one point she actually puts her hands on Odell too ... going up and grabbing his face, almost as if she's going in for a kiss.

You never actually witness them lock lips ... but this is the most we've seen them interact with one another in public since they've been rumored to be dating ... going back months now.

Doesn't look like they knew they were being filmed either -- but at this point ... it's pretty obvious they're together as a couple. They even showed up together for all the post-Oscars shindigs ... first hitting the Vanity Fair after-party, and later swinging by Jay and Bey's thing.

Remember, they were also spotted out together in Vegas last month during the Super Bowl -- and there, too, they seemed to be trying to lay low ... and distance themselves a bit.

Same vibe here when they were outside heading into a party -- namely, trying to stagger a bit -- but they're not doing a very good job at throwing people off the scent anymore. Now with this new video -- it seems cat's outta the bag ... they're straight up dating each other.

Rumors of Kim and Odell being an item have swirled for months -- and all reports thus far have suggested that it's not that serious. However, they seem pretty into each other ... and the fact they continue to hang out all this time later indicates this might be the real deal.

Kim has yet to publicly declare anyone as her official significant since splitting from comedian Pete Davidson in August 2022. Of course, she was previously married to Kanye West, who she shares kids North, Saint, Chicago and Psalm with ... but that's over.

As for Odell ... he split from his longtime girlfriend Lauren Wood earlier in 2023, and has been single since.

While Kim and Odell have yet to confirm the rumored romance on paper (or on IG, more like) ... it's clear they enjoy each other's company. Perhaps a little bit more than that, TBH.

Kim Kardashian and Odell Beckham Jr. made contact this weekend in public -- although, it does seem they're still trying to maintain somewhat of a low profile as a new item.

The rumored couple was spotted in the same vicinity Saturday night at the Fanatics Party at the Marquee Dayclub in the Cosmopolitan -- and TMZ obtained new video that shows them briefly going in for a hug ... albeit, one from which Kim seemed to quickly pull away.

Check out the clip ... you see them go in for a quick, friendly hello -- and Kim almost wraps her right arm around Odell's neck, but quickly yanks it down and away before she can fully wrap her arms around him.

What's interesting about that is ... that same evening Khloe was trying to block cameras from recording KK and OBJ as they all boarded an elevator -- as seen in other footage we also got. So, it feels like they're trying to keep things on the DL.

The weird thing about this is ... if they're really trying to hide their relationship, why even show up in Vegas together at all??? Everyone saw them this weekend, and they were kinda trailing each other all over the place Saturday night, very conspicuously.

If Kim and Odell are, in fact, trying to throw people off the scent of them being together, they're not doing a very good job. Rumors of them dating have been swirling for months.

Baltimore Ravens star Mark Andrews just made the highlight of the year ... springing into action and assisting a woman who was suffering a mid-flight emergency.

A passenger flying from Baltimore to Phoenix documented the scary situation on X ... saying a woman required medical attention while thousands of feet in the air, and the doctor and nurse who attended to her could not find a pulse.

To make matters worse, the eyewitness said the woman needed oxygen to be able to breathe.

According to the passenger, Andrews -- who has type 1 diabetes -- got involved and asked if low blood sugar may have sparked the emergency ... and instructed the responders on how to use his diabetic testing kit.

Eventually, the woman's heart rate was stabilized ... and paramedics were readily waiting for her once the plane touched down in Phoenix.

Andrews addressed the incident via the Ravens ... telling TMZ Sports, "In addition to the fast-acting flight attendants, the real heroes are the nurse and doctor who also happened to be on the plane. Thankfully they were able to provide the woman the quick assistance she needed."

The All-Pro tight end has previously opened up about his experience with diabetes -- in fact, he tests his blood sugar every time he leaves the field to make sure his levels are okay.

Travis Kelce se burló de Justin Tucker por su altercado antes del partido del Campeonato de la AFC, criticando al pateador de los Baltimore Ravens por actuar como un "m***ito i***" y meterse a propósito en el camino de Patrick Mahomes durante el calentamiento.

Ambas partes han seguido reviviendo el viral episodio esta semana, con Tucker, Mahomes y ahora Kelce hablando sobre ella.

Travis no se contuvo al discutir la disputa en su podcast "New Heights" con su hermano Jason el miércoles, diciendo que podía decir que Tucker estaba bromeando, pero los Chiefs no estaban de humor para payasadas.

Kelce explicó que hay una regla no escrita cuando se trata de especialistas: se aseguran de mantenerse fuera del camino de sus oponentes cuando se preparan para un enfrentamiento. Pero Tucker no lo hizo y causó molestia.

"Si quieres ser un jodido imbécil al respecto, toma tu casco, tu balón y tu jodida camiseta de pateador justo donde los quarterbacks calientan", dijo Kelce.

"Si no vas a recoger eso, con gusto lo moveré por ti".

Por supuesto, Kelce demostró ser un hombre de palabra, pues tomó el casco de Tucker y lo lanzó lejos de Mahomes el domingo.

Kelce se disculpó por sus acciones y admitió que Tucker le guiñó un ojo durante el altercado para indicar que solo estaba jugando, pero reiteró que no estaba de humor para bromear.

"Si vas a ser un d*** te prometo que puedo superarte cada vez".

Travis Kelce just teed off on Justin Tucker over their pregame altercation at the AFC Championship ... calling out the Baltimore Ravens kicker for acting like a "f***ing d***" and purposely getting in Patrick Mahomes' way during warmups.

Both sides of the tiff have continued to breathe life into the viral moment this week ... with Tucker, Mahomes and now Kelce weighing in on it.

Travis didn't hold back when discussing the spat on his "New Heights" podcast with his brother, Jason, on Wednesday ... saying he could tell Tucker was playing around, but the Chiefs weren't in the mood for tomfoolery.

Kelce explained there's an unwritten rule when it comes to specialists -- they make sure to stay out of their opponents' way when prepping for a matchup. But, Tucker didn't do that ... which rubbed him the wrong way.

"If you want to be a f***ing d*** about it, you keep your helmet and your football and your f***ing kicking tee right where the quarterbacks are warming up and they’re dropping, eyes are looking left and they’ve got a helmet down by their feet," Kelce said.

"If you’re not going to pick that up, I’ll happily move that for you."

Of course, Kelce proved to be a man of his word ... taking Tucker's helmet and tossing it away from Mahomes on Sunday.

Kelce apologized for his actions ... admitting Tucker winked at him during the altercation to indicate he was just messing around, but reiterated he was not in a joking mood.

"If you're gonna be a d*** I promise you, I can one-up you every time."

Patrick Mahomes believes Justin Tucker being all up in his space before the AFC Championship Game was no accident ... claiming the Ravens kicker's pregame run-in was an attempt to get under the Chiefs' skin.

The incident was all the talk before kickoff on Sunday ... with Mahomes and Travis Kelce getting into it with the veteran NFL kicker over his spot on the field while both sides were trying to warm up for the big playoff game.

Tucker downplayed the incident on Monday ... calling the whole thing "silly," but Mahomes clearly doesn't see it that way -- accusing the All-Pro specialist of going out of his way to play some mind games on the defending Super Bowl champions.

"He does that little stuff, I think to try to get under our skin," Mahomes said Tuesday on The Drive on Audacy's 610 Sports Radio. "I asked him to move his stuff. He got up and moved it, I think, two inches but didn’t move it out of the way. I was gonna let it slide, but Travis got in and moved it for me. And after that, I wasn’t gonna let him put it back down."

Mahomes said he's only had similar issues three times in his NFL career ... and each happened to be before games against the Ravens.

"I have a lot of respect for him as a player, one of the best kickers of all time, probably the best kicker of all time," he added. "But at the same time, you’ve got to have respect for each team, and we all share the field, and we try to do that in a respectful way."

Justin Tucker just opened up about the tiff he got into with Travis Kelce and Patrick Mahomes before their game on Sunday ... downplaying the incident, while calling it all "kind of silly."

The Chiefs stars had big beef with JT just before the AFC Championship at M&T Bank Stadium in Baltimore, after he placed his helmet and kicking balls near their warm ups. Kelce actually got so heated during the moment, he kicked Tucker's stuff ... before hurling his helmet.

On Monday, the Ravens star was asked about the encounter ... and he said it was unlike anything he had ever experienced in his 12-year career. But, he did seem to say he wasn't taking anything too personal.

"I saw Patrick there trying to warm up and get some drop backs," Tucker said. "He asked me while I was on the ground stretching if I could move my helmet. I happily got up and I moved my helmet out of the way -- at least I thought it was enough out of the way. And then Travis comes over and he just kicks my stuff, and he throws my helmet."

"I just thought it was all just some gamesmanship, all in good fun but they seemed to be taking it a little more seriously."

Tucker added he's now ready to put the whole thing behind them.

2:04 PM PT -- Tons of memorable moments in the first half ... including one where the Ravens offense seemed to mock a T-Swift celebration from past games.

1:54 PM PT -- We've got eyes on Jason ... who's going with a two-layer approach, Hawaiian shirt over Chiefs T. Gonna be a little harder to free the nipple now, JK!

It's that time of the week again folks ... Taylor Swift's ready to cheer on Travis Kelce and the Chiefs -- in what could be her last game of the season.

The pop star pulled up to M&T Bank Stadium in Baltimore to take on the Ravens Sunday ... going with a more toned-down look than we've seen her sport in past weekends. She's got a bright red shirt on, but she's covered it with a long black coat.

Why exactly she's doing that ... looks like T-Swift's twinning with her better half -- who looked downright vicious in a matching coat and black beanie. In fact, his whole ensemble's black -- giving him the look of a real bad dude.

The Chiefs' X account's playing into the joke BTW ... captioning the vid "Knew he was a Killa first time that we saw him" -- tossing Trav's "Killa" nickname into a paraphrased version of Taylor's first line in "...Ready For It?"

At Swift's side ... her best gameday gal pal Brittany Mahomes who stuck with the toned-down colors theme in a black and white leather-looking coat with her hubby Patrick's number stitched into the lapel.

BTW ... Travis' big bro Jason -- whose shirtless celebration after TK's TD last weekend sparked national headlines -- and his wife Kylie are also reportedly going to the game. No sign of them yet though.

It's the biggest game of the season for K.C. The Chiefs are one win away from the Super Bowl -- with the best team in the AFC standing in the way ... worst of all, this may be the last time the team benefits from the "Taylor Magic."

Obviously, if they lose, no more Chiefs games this season for Swift ... but even if they win it might be hard for Taylor to make it to the Super Bowl. The big game's scheduled for Sunday, February 11 -- the same weekend that TayTay heads back on tour.

Swift's got shows February 7-10 in Tokyo ... we had the TMZ Math Department crunch the numbers, and that should leave Swift about 36 hours from the end of her show to fly from Tokyo to Vegas to see the game.

We know she's got her own private jet ... but damn that's a lot on her. Plus, we've already seen what happens when Swift's working on her own career -- she missed a couple of Kelce's games back in November when she was down in South America.

So, this may be the end of another Taylor Era ... or maybe not! Travis just made an incredible touchdown catch -- so those Super Bowl hopes are alive and well.

We may just have to see if Swift can make the commute work.

Travis Kelce and Chiefs Kingdom won't like this ...

An extremely talented Baltimore fan is hoping to bring some good Taylor Swift juju to his favorite team ... by painting a mural of the pop star decked out in a Lamar Jackson jersey!!

The artist goes by dlordink on social media ... and at some point, after it was revealed the Ravens would take on the Chiefs in the AFC Championship Game this weekend, he got the idea to try to use Swift's good luck powers for his squad.

The painter threw up the artwork at Unlimited Art Studio in Havre de Grace, Md. ... and he said on his TikTok page he and another designer spent three hours perfecting it.

Afterward, he was clearly pleased with how it all turned out ... writing in a caption on a pic of the wall, "Tag @taylorswift & @killatrav in the comments and let them know how good she looks in @new_era8 @ravens purple."

Odell Beckham Jr. believes the New York Giants were trying to sabotage his career by shipping him to the Cleveland Browns in 2019 ... revealing he felt his old team made the trade just to "f*** me over."

OBJ spoke his mind on his Ravens teammate Marlon Humphrey’s "Punch Line Podcast" earlier this week ... when he opened up on his eventual departure from the organization that drafted him in 2014.

"There’s a semi bit of me that feels like the Giants sent me off, I’ve said it before, sent me off to Cleveland to die," Odell said ... adding he felt there were better deals on the table with contenders, but NY chose the less favorable destination.

"You can't tell me this was the best trade package we could have got for you ... no, your desire was to kind of f*** me over a little bit."

Beckham and defensive end Olivier Vernon were traded to The Land in exchange for safety Jabrill Peppers, guard Kevin Zeitler and a first and third-round pick ... the former eventually becoming Giants defensive tackle Dexter Lawrence, a staple for the franchise.

Beckham Jr. started off hot in the Big Apple ... but things quickly turned sour. He became just as famous for his on-field success as his antics off it, including sideline outbursts.

The current Ravens receiver believes the team didn't like the way he handled himself in the latter part of his Giants tenure ... which is why he thinks they screwed him over when he asked to be traded.

"You feel like I made a fool of you or the organization and that was never truly my intention ... I'm just that competitive," OBJ added. "I wanted to win, I always wanted to win. I’m tired of being 6-10, we haven’t done anything to make changes."

Odell said his urgency to win also had to do with his quarterback at the time, Eli Manning ... who was on the backend of his career.

"Eli's going out, I'm texting Eli like, 'You're 7th on the list for the greatest of all time.' I want to see Eli go out with another Super Bowl. We're not putting the pieces around him ... I feel like I was being wasted as well."

Odell also revealed how he found out he was traded ... saying he was overseas at the time, and the whole situation was "a lot" for him.

"To me, whether that's right, wrong or indifferent, it felt like a move that had a bit of spite a bit of like ... you're not finna go somewhere else and shine and make us look bad."

Warren Moon says if he were coaching the Ravens, he wouldn't sit Lamar Jackson, Odell Beckham Jr. or any other starter this week -- telling TMZ Sports he believes the moves could seriously ruin their chances at a Super Bowl.

Of course, with the No. 1 seed in the AFC already locked up, John Harbaugh revealed earlier this week Jackson and several others will take a seat on the bench against the Steelers on Saturday in order to stay healthy for the postseason.

Moon, though, doesn't think that idea's so great ... explaining that because Baltimore has a bye in the first round of the playoffs, there's now a far greater chance the squad will be rusty when it finally kicks off its divisional round game in more than two weeks.

"As a football player," the Hall of Famer said, "you want to stay within that routine and that habit of what you've been going through the whole season to make you successful."

Moon said he's by no means advocating playing Jackson and co. the full game against Pittsburgh -- he just thinks a few series could mitigate any potential problems down the road.

"That's the only thing that concerns about this team and some of the guys that they're sitting down," the ex-quarterback said. "How sharp are they going to be in three weeks after going through a season where they're used to playing week after week after week?"

In addition to Jackson ... three other starters -- Beckham, Marlon Humphrey and Kevin Zeitler -- have already been ruled out. Star rookie Zay Flowers and star defensive back Kyle Hamilton appear poised to miss the game too.

Nonetheless, Moon still believes the Ravens have done enough to show him they're the NFL's best heading into 2024.

Channing Crowder has a bone to pick with his former team ... telling TMZ Sports he's upset the Dolphins left Tua Tagovailoa and Bradley Chubb in during their blowout loss on Sunday -- leaving them vulnerable to injuries.

The former Miami linebacker said he wished Mike McDaniel had pulled all of his guys from their 56-19 game against Baltimore ... because he thinks it could've saved the Fins' two stars from getting hurt.

"That game, at that juncture," he said, "down by that much -- 30-plus points -- you pull out the starters. You fold up camp. Whatever you want to say. And you get ready for Buffalo Bills."

McDaniel, of course, didn't do that ... and Tagovailoa sustained a shoulder injury that has him day-to-day, while Chubb tore his ACL.

Crowder says the decision could now cost the Dolphins dearly.

"If the Dolphins are healthy, they can play with anybody in the league," Crowder said. "But, now you start getting these injuries after injuries, and that's when it's going to go downhill for the Dolphins."

Going forward, Crowder implored his ex-team to bring in some edge rushers help to offset injuries that Jaelan Phillips and Chubb have now suffered.

Ray Rice will be honored by the Baltimore Ravens this weekend in front of fans -- this almost 10 years after he infamously knocked out his significant other in an elevator.

The ex-star running back has been tapped to be the focus of Sunday's "Legend of the Game" ceremony at M&T Bank Stadium ... where they'll formally recognize his achievements both on and off the field during and after his time with the team, which ended in 2014.

His professional accolades are unquestioned -- 3-time Pro Bowler and a SB champ, among other impressive stats -- but the obvious question ... is he worthy of a spotlight after his horrific domestic violence incident? The Ravens seem to think he's earned a 2nd chance.

The team's own article on this major news is quoted as saying ... "Rice is being recognized for the player he was, and for the redemption he has worked towards. Out of the public eye, Rice has been working on himself, his relationship, and within the community."

On that front, it's true ... Rice has become an incredibly philanthropic person in and around Baltimore since 2014 -- having contributed to a number of charitable orgs, speaking on behalf of important causes (preventing DV) and contributing mightily to local youths' lives.

Rice has also acknowledged how wrong he was for punching his then-girlfriend/now-wife, Janay Palmer, which left her completely unconscious. He now says, "I truly understand why I was let go and why so many hearts changed. But hopefully people can see where I'm at now. They say people can change, right? I am not the same person I was 10-12 years ago. That's just not who I am." He says he's trying to be the best version of himself in 2023.

Ravens Prez Sashi Brown adds ... "He was also consistently in the community, giving back. Importantly, after Ray's incident he owned it. On his own accord, Ray undertook critical work within himself and to bring awareness to and educate others on domestic violence. Nothing will change his past or make it right, but Ray's work has allowed him to atone for his actions and rebuild relationships personally and professionally, including with the Ravens."

Ray has returned to Baltimore before for a 'LOTF' ceremony -- notably in 2018, when he attended on behalf of others being honored and received a warm welcome from fans.

Don't be surprised if Lamar Jackson's lifting the Lombardi Trophy at the end of this year ... 'cause former Baltimore star Peter Boulware says he's confident the Ravens have what it takes to win the Super Bowl this season.

The ex-pass rusher made it clear to TMZ Sports he loves what the Baltimore QB is doing ... as well as everyone else that's surrounding the talented signal-caller this year.

"They've got the pieces in place and they've got the coaches in place to really, really get it done," Boulware said. "So, they're in a really, really good position."

Of course, Boulware is biased ... he played for the Ravens for the entirety of his career from 1997 to 2005, and won one Super Bowl for the org. But, Baltimore does truly appear to be that good this season.

They're currently 9-3 and tied for the No. 1 seed in the AFC ... and with quarterback injuries all over the conference, they -- alongside the Chiefs -- certainly seem like the favorites for now to make it to the Big Game in February.
